+ACE QoS API (AQoSA)
+===================
+
+This directory contains the implementation for the ACE QoS API (AQoSA).
+
+BUILD REQUIREMENTS
+==================
+WIN2K :
+
+AQoSA makes use of the GQOS API under Windows 2000.  The minimum
+requirements are:
+
+1. June98 Platform SDK or later.
+2. Link with ws2_32.lib 
+
+More information about GQOS is available from the MSDN website:
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdn-files/026/002/258/Search.asp
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+UNIX :
+
+AQoSA makes use of the RSVP API (RAPI) under UNIX.
+RAPI can be obtained from: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/rsvp/release/.
+rsvpd.rel4.2a4-1 may require patches in order to compile
+under current versions of Linux.  Contact Craig Rodrigues <crodrigu@bbn.com>
+to obtain these patches.
+
+The following lines should be added to your platform_macros.GNU file
+before building AQoSA:
+
+PLATFORM_RAPI_CPPFLAGS += -I[path to RAPI header files]
+PLATFORM_RAPI_LIBS += -lrsvp
+PLATFORM_RAPI_LDFLAGS += -L[path to RAPI library files]
+
+1. Compile AQoSA with 
+       
+   make rapi=1 
+
+More information about RAPI can be found at:
